Now let’s jump back in time a little. Now we have small computers which have better performance than old desktops. I had hardly managed my first Windows 98 installation. I had skipped the Windows 95 because I really liked DOS. Everything was working on the way I wanted and if something went wrong I was able to troubleshoot it on a very simple way.

Of course we need graphical user interface on our smartphones otherwise it would be really difficult to use text based operating systems.

Why do I prefer Android?

Android is not perfect solution. It can have problems as well. However it’s based on Linux what I really prefer. This mobile operating system is the closest one to freedom.

Android had less limitations compared to the others. I mean good functionality and easy use give an illusion that your product is very good and you can make selfies, videos and much more.

The problem is that you can do only what the software allows you to do. In reality, you spend money to limit your user experience level. You can’t copy files via bluetooth or you can’t even explore them or you can’t add simply phone contacts to your phone memory because you need to register a special account.

I don’t say smartphones and mobile operating systems are not good but I don’t like the lack of freedom.

I agree that Android is the superior operating system, not because of it’s similarity to Linux or any of the technological things you mentioned, but simple because it is the most user-friendly. Compared to iPhone (which, in my opinion is nothingness in a nice frame), and Windows, Android has a larger app market with way more free apps and is pretty cut and dry and far and getting to what i need to get to quickly. I still cannot figure out how to customize my boyfriend’s Windows phone and the same is true with a friend’s iPhone. I am especially against iPhone since its performance does not measure up to its price tag. One thing I do like about Windows is that it quickly goes from one screen to the next with one touch as opposed to android’s long press, and I also prefer it’s predictive texting where it is pretty good at suggesting the next word I am about to text, as opposed to Swype which I do prefer over pushing each dang key like iPhone.

In conclusion, buy an android, then perhaps a Windows, but stay away from iPhone at all costs (literally).
